If nothing on tv then turn on Nerflix
And then FTA execs wonder why streaming is becoming the new norm. Thankfully we had Netflix to fall back to last night.
I’m sorry , but exactly how does SBS fulfil its charter by continuously screening British documentaries all through the week ? Last night Queen Victoria’s Slum and Secrets of the Tower of London ?
I’d love to see the fat cats of SBS before a senate’s committee justifying their spending of the taxpayer’s dollar…the sooner SBS and the ABC are amalgamated the better, preferably all in the one location and sharing resources in these lean times …
SBS World Movies are showing the Flinstone movie today…..
And repeated tomorrow, with Monty Python’s Flying Circus and yet another Hitler doc. across 3 channels – 5pm or so.
The Slum show is on its 3rd screening in primetime and yet that still outranks ‘Fargo’ in a 1st showing…
we are very americanised so some british sruff should equalise it a bit.
Perhaps SBS should look back to 1980 when they ran the following promo (now on YT) re multi-cultural programming:

Actually, I still like it as much now as I did back in the 80s.
Given that SBS’ FTA programming has significantly shifted from international at its inception to English language based programming these days, I’m inclined to agree with thedirtydigger that the time for SBS’ amalgamation with the ABC has arrived.
